Here at ChiIL Mama, we love to spend the Chi, IL summers ChiILin' on the beach and relaxing with friends. This summer we're out and about with a stylin' new set of beach gear from our friend over at PEEPS & COMPANY®.I'm happy to partner up with them once again and thank them for providing us with a free Sweet Summer Prize Pack for my family and one for my readers, along with a 20% discount code for everything on the PEEPS & COMPANY® website. We may be between the holidays that made PEEPS & COMPANY®famous, but PEEPS® are always in season. Summer's even sweeter when you rock your Peepsonality, and ChiIL Mama's here to get you started, with a sweet giveaway for our readers nationwide, and a 20% off discount code!

Our Sweet Summer Prize Pack was a huge hit at Chicago's 26th annual Gymnastics Beach Meet on Montrose Beach! The city brings bars, beams, vaults, rings, a tumble track and a full gymnastics spring floor down to the sand and runs a judged gymnastics meet for children through adults. We met a 40 year old woman who used to be an Elite level gymnast, who was still competing with an adult team from IK Gym. She was awesome and inspiring! This was my 13 year old daughter's 5th time competing in the Chicago Beach Meet since 2010.

What a difference 6 years makes!! Here's ChiIL Mama's daughter in her first Beach Meet ever, back in 2010 & now.

Enter Here for your chance to WIN a Sweet Summer Prize Pack that includes the following:

*(U.S. residents only, no P.O. boxes). Enter early and often through midnight August 17th.

PEEPS® Beach Ball: A day at the beach will never be the same with your very own PEEPS® beach ball. A day in the sun will be more fun, if you spend it with brightly colored PEEPS® Chicks and Bunnies!

PEEPS® Collapsible Plastic Water Bottle: Refreshment on the go is no longer a problem with this PEEPS® Chick and Bunny collapsible water bottle. Just fill it with your favorite drink, and off you go. When it's all gone, the bottle can be flattened and packed away, no problem.

PEEPS® Character Flying Disc: Keep the kids occupied for hours with these playful PEEPS® Character Flying Discs! Perfect for the playground, beach, or backyard.

PEEPS® Wetsuit Pouch: You'll be the belle of the changing room with this little accessory! Our Peeps® Wet Suit Tote makes traveling with a wet bathing suit fun again ; ) Can also be used to carry any other messy gear or toiletries you might have.

PEEPS® Pail: There are six bright, new designs to THE collection of PEEPS® Pails! Load 'em with treats and goodies and reuse them later for all sorts of things.
